My argument is that:

1. stable must not have security issues, i.e. all security issues
   should be fixed ASAP. AFAIK, security issues in stable are
   generally fixed before unstable.

2. Given (1), if testing version = stable version, it is as easy to
   fix testing.

On the other hand, is it really necessary to have unstable migrate
to testing right now?
